Cathedral of Trees

from My Light True by Englewood

/

lyrics

Here’s where my God waits for me,
here where the redwoods make a steeple of trees.
Here’s where I go when I need to say please, please.

Here’s the church where I’m welcome.
Here on earth it’s heaven.
Here’s where I go when I need an in.

I say God, it’s time for our one-on-one.
I say God, time to bring out the heavy guns.
Stop messing around,
making believe you’re out of town.
Please… please.

An answer comes with a murmured brook,
or a stellar jay who swings by with a look.
And in the sudden quite of the trees I feel peace.

I say God, thank you for that one-on-one time.
I say God, thank you for who you are in everyone.
And in this cathedral of trees,
thank you for bringing me peace.
And thanks for giving me this place where I can say please
